Title: Mean, Median, Mode, and Range


1
Mean, Median, Mode, and Range
2
Mean is the average of a set of data. To
calculate the mean, find the sum of the data and
then divide by the number of data.
3
12, 15, 11, 11, 7, 13
First, find the sum of the data.
12 15 11 11 7 13 69
Then divide by the number of data.
69 / 6 11.5
The mean is 11.5
4
You can remember that mean means to average
because the mean teacher averages your grade.
You try the next one!
5
An electronics store sells CD players at the
following prices 350, 275, 500, 325, 100,
375, and 300. What is the mean price?
Find your answer before clicking!
6
350 275 500 325 100 375 300
2225
2225 / 7 317.86
The mean or average price of a CD player is
317.86.
7
Median is the middle number in a set of data when
the data is arranged in numerical order.
8
12, 15, 11, 11, 7, 13
First, arrange the data in numerical order.
7, 11, 11, 12, 13, 15
Then find the number in the middle or the average
of the two numbers in the middle.
11 12 23 23 / 2 11.5
The median is 11.5
9
An electronics store sells CD players at the
following prices 350, 275, 500, 325, 100,
375, and 300. What is the median price?
Find your answer before clicking!
10
First place the prices in numerical order.
100, 275, 300, 325, 350, 375, 500
The price in the middle is the median price.
The median price is 325.
11
The mode is the number that occurs the most.
12
12, 15, 11, 11, 7, 13
The mode is 11.
13
Sometimes a set of data will have more than one
mode.
For example, in the following set the numbers
both the numbers 5 and 7 appear twice.
2, 9, 5, 7, 8, 6, 4, 7, 5
5 and 7 are both the mode and this set is said to
be bimodal.
14
Sometimes there is no mode in a set of data.
3, 8, 7, 6, 12, 11, 2, 1
All the numbers in this set occur only once
therefore there is no mode in this set.
15
100, 275, 300, 325, 350, 375, 500
What is the mode ?
Find your answer before clicking!
16
100, 275, 300, 325, 350, 375, 500
There is no mode!
17
You can remember that mode means the number that
occurs the most because mode and most sound
alike!
18
The range of a set of data is the difference
between the largest and the smallest number in
the set.
For example, consider the following set
40, 30, 43, 48, 26, 50, 55, 40, 34, 42, 47, and 50
To find the range you would take the largest
number, 50, and subtract the smallest number, 26.
55 26 29
The range is 29!
19
Mean
The average
Median
The number or average of the numbers in the middle
Mode
The number that occurs most
